It took place in front of Uttaradit Railway Station Sunday night, with more than 30 vehicles parked on the roads, displaying their sound systems.Controversy started after a group of scantily-clad female dancers climbed onto the pick-up trucks and started dancing in a sexually-suggestive way. Some of the dancers and onlookers were also seen drinking alcohol.Full story: http://www.khaosodenglish.com/detail.php?newsid=1451288726 -- Khaosod English 2015-12-28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhizBang Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 The ONLY thing lewd in that photo is those damned sound trucks. They should be flat out banned. Period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NextStationBangkok Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 (edited) OMG! We badly need this in Bangkok , especially during New Year Celebration. We don't have to go to expensive bars. Should be included under TAT promotions too. What a nice entertainment while having highly taxed 7-11 Beer.

WhizBang Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Controversy started after a group of scantily-clad female dancers climbed onto the pick-up trucks and started dancing in a sexually-suggestive way. Some of the dancers and onlookers were also seen drinking alcohol. Scantily clad females are EVERYWHERE. So what's the big deal? Oh, and some dancers and onlookers were drinking alcohol? So what's new? In fact, at what events in Thailand are people NOT drinking alcohol? Just wait, New Years is only a few days away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCruncher Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I'm not prude at all and visit gogo bars, but i have faced a few times this kind of dancing on sound trucks when passing an event, and for some reason I get the feeling that I'm watching animals.

thesetat2013 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 OMG! They were dancing sexy in shorts. To what levels will things be reduced to there. For crying out loud. It was a new years party. Not some fundraiser or upper echelon business party. I have seen African tribal dances sexier than what these girls do.

Youaredoomed Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Oh dear, it's only 'lewd' when some local 'Thaier than Thou' stuffed shirt says something and this rather sporting, public spirited, right thinking' Mayor has to apologise once his own 'Thaier than Thou' ness is threatened..... Although I have a long 20+ year association with this magnificent country, there is, almost every day, something which makes me raise an eyebrow and suck a thoughtful tooth, which is why I love it so.

Pimay1 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Thia dancing is not allowed but it is ok at the large outdoor concerts for the guys to bring a huge foam dildo out on stage and ride it around the stage poking into people and making sexual jokes. And this is in front of all the children. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zakk9 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I can't remember having been to a single local (more or less) concert in Thailand the last 20 years that haven't featured scantily clad dancer performing sexually provoking dance, many of the dancer well under 16 years of age. Maybe the mayor of Uttaradit needs to get out more.... or is it his wife who's behind the complaint? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morakot Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Opinion: Sexual hypocrisy is alive and well in Thailand by Thitipol Panyalimpanun -- asiancorrespondent.com SEX is a topic Thai society isn’t too sure how to handle. Thailand’s teen pregnancy and HIV infection numbers are worryingly high, and the fact that sex remains a social taboo only makes for a tough battle. Despite being well known for a large community of ladyboys and gay friendliness, Thai society lacks understanding and knowledge about gender rights. While sex is in part intuitive and subjective, many aspects of it actually require education. And before sexism, homophobia or anti-sex enters the list of social values of so called ‘Thainess’, we need to talk about sex. http://asiancorrespondent.com/2015/03/opinion-sexual-hypocrisy-is-alive-and-well-in-thailand/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
